Happy mining! ⛏️

Even though Minecraft is a peaceful game, there may be players that wreak havoc in your multiplayer server, forcing you to ban them. Banning a user means they cannot join your world until you unban them.

Whether you banned a user for violating the rules or you banned them accidentally, you can unban them easily. So, you can follow the step-by-step guide below to unban someone in Minecraft.

Types of Ban in Minecraft

Before moving on to the actual procedure of unbanning, it is best to understand the different types of bans. It is important to know how you banned a person in order to unban them.

There are two types of bans in Minecraft.

  • Player Ban: This is where you ban a player using their username. In this type of ban, the player cannot join the game until they change their account. 
  • IP Ban: The IP ban blocks the user’s IP address so that nobody will be able to play from the blocked network connection. Even if the banned user makes a new account, they will still be banned if they’re using their current IP address.

Now that we know the types of the ban, we can look at how to unban someone in two different ways.

Lifting Player Ban

If the player was banned using their player name, you can use the “/pardon” command to unban them.

  1. Go to the console of your Minecraft Server.
  2. Type in “/pardon player name” without quotation marks. If you do not know the player name, you can type “/banlist” and see the list of players banned on the server.

  3. Hit Enter after typing the command in step two, and that player can join the server again.

Lifting IP Ban

If you have an IP banned, you can lift it by using the “/pardon-ip” command.

  1. Go to the Server Console.
  2. Type “/pardon-ip IP address. You need to enter the actual the IP address you wish to unban.

  3. Hit Enter and the users using the IP address can join again.
